In roughly 6 hours I have a playoff game vs. a 2330TV khemri team. I could not lay out the team exactly from memory but all TG have at least guard + MB. Only one of them has block. They have three total tacklers (both blitz-ra's and a st4 skeleton). The team is extremely bloated, IMO, with 7RR + 4 cheerleaders + 4 coaches, but the guy plays well so it's obviously been working for him. There are 13 total players and they have no DP. All this will be facing off against my 1270 humans team, Les Rois de France. We were much more developed but my last opponent before the playoffs and I were both already qualified and he decided to not even attempt to play ball and spent the whole game fouling his guys out (and getting lucky with the CAS dice). Anyways, that'll be a score to settle on another day. As best as I can recall, this is my team
blitzer Louis IX block, dodge, +MV, + AG
blitzer Philippe II block, dodge, guard, stand firm
blitzer Charlemagne block, guard
blitzer Louis XIV block, MB, PO, frenzy (-AG, MNG )
(side question for this guy: I had option of -AG or -MV, was this the right choice?)
thrower Clovis I sure hand, pass, block, tackle, accurate
catcher Francis II dodge, catch
lineman Charles le Gros kick (skill pending, 12 rolled...probably going with +ST but advice welcome)
lineman Louis XII block, tackle
lineman Eudes de Paris
lineman Raoul de France
lineman Jek the Fool (MNG)
lineman Henri III
3RR + APO
9ff
That leaves me with 10 healthy guys for this match. I have decent amount of cash in the bank so player purchases are an option. With the loner I'll get I'll have 970K to spend. We have extended inducements in this league, but cheering fans are banned. The two plans I've considered most heavily are:
430 Morg
270 Zara
150 wizard
100 babes(2)
add 2 cheerleaders
430 Morg
320 Oberwald
150 wizard
50 babes
add 2 cheerleaders
plan A seems the best, but I wonder how much use I'll get out of Zara when I'll be attempting to blitz with Morg every turn. Zara would give some redundancy if Morg were to go down or get tied up. Oberwald gives the option of another ball handler. I won't win this game by outhitting the guy, which makes Oberwald seem an attractive option. There is probably a better plan that I am not considering. AG potion for Louis IX and guard merc ogre are other things I'd like to fit in somehow.
